Our Commitment to Transparency
At Made in JPN Lab (madeinjpnlab.com), we believe in being fully transparent with our readers. This page explains how we earn money and how that may or may not affect the content we publish.
We Are an Amazon Associate
Made in JPN Lab is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.
This means that when you click on certain product links on our site and make a purchase on Amazon, we may earn a small commission — at no additional cost to you. The price you pay is exactly the same whether you use our link or go to Amazon directly.
How Affiliate Links Work
- Some links on this site are affiliate links, used to recommend products we cover in our reviews and guides.
- If you click an affiliate link and buy something, we receive a small percentage of the sale as a referral fee.
- You pay nothing extra — the commission comes from Amazon’s side, not from your pocket.
- You are never obligated to purchase through our links.
Our Editorial Independence
Affiliate relationships do not influence our reviews or recommendations. We only recommend products we genuinely believe offer value to our readers. If a product is not worth buying, we will say so — regardless of whether we earn a commission on it.
FTC Disclosure Compliance
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines (16 CFR Part 255), we disclose any material connection between our site and the products or companies we recommend. Affiliate commissions constitute such a material connection.
Individual posts and pages that contain affiliate links may also include a brief disclosure notice near the top of the content.
Other Potential Relationships
From time to time, we may also participate in other affiliate programs beyond Amazon Associates, accept sponsored content (clearly labeled as such), or display third-party advertisements. Any such relationships will always be clearly disclosed.
